Sewer lines require regular inspection and maintenance. However, many homeowners overlook them since they are out of sight. For this reason, many sewer problems go unnoticed until they cause damage to your plumbing system.
If you notice something is wrong with your system, don’t hesitate to contact Carter’s Plumbing. We will conduct a comprehensive inspection and determine if you require sewer repair services in Commerce, MI. Below, we list the common issues we find during an inspection:
Pipe Belly
A sagging or bellied pipe may arise from poor installation and shifting soil. When this happens, waste builds up at the low point, inhibiting the system’s flow. This issue can lead to a blockage or backup, which can inflict irreparable damage to your property. We can detect this problem during an inspection and see if sewer line replacement is in order.
Offset Pipes
This problem occurs when two pipe sections meet but don’t line up correctly. In many cases, this results from root growth and settling ground, triggering the two pipes to shift. Offset pipes may also happen due to subpar installation. Our experts will inform you about the severity of the issue and determine whether you need to repair or replace sewer line.
Clogs
Hair, grease, food scraps, and other debris can find their way down the sewer line, eventually forming a blockage. Tree roots can also penetrate the pipes and expand inside, impeding water flow. We can locate and identify the cause of the clog during the inspection using an advanced camera and perform sewer pipe line repair if necessary.
